I't was just to break the loneliness of Hal from the 17 october, he was alone for a few days to write here. Now, a lot of people write ! I don't understand some parts of your post Mario sorry... I copy/paste a part of bible, nothing bad, yess not appropriate in this thread but, like hal said, It's his thread => nothing else to say or write, he is the master. I leave all in peace and quiet of course. I'm not angry with anybody, no game, nothing. (Message edited by pierreyves on October 23, 2009) | ||

"yess not appropriate in this thread" Then why did you post it in the first place? Again, take it to email. | ||

And another thing ... How would Pierre feel if someone posted like he did in his FTC thread? Would he be open to it? Would he like it? I don't know for sure, but I suspect he wouldn't appreciate it much. Breaking loneliness? Take it offline. Alan | ||

I'm just playing music... let me now in peace, if you know what mean this word. Now i'm working on "what if I forget the champaign" (Stanley Clarke). Best regards Alan.

(In this context, "Spain" is probably the Chick Corea tune.) I'm not going to close this thread, since this thread is for Mica's use in communicating with Hal about his bass. That said, it might be a good idea going forward if all posts to this thread were kept to the subject of the thread, the instrument that Mica and Alembic are building. In fact in might further be helpful if everyone just gave it a break for 24 hours or so. Little of positive value is gained in these exchanges. So everyone - give it a rest. | ||

Yes is it Dave, a great tune very plaisant to play! But if this thread, as I understand, is fpor communicate between Mica and Hal, why Mica is so absent ? I will do what break anyone want, with all respect I must have for you Dave, thank's. (Message edited by pierreyves on October 23, 2009) | ||

Jackass - means donkey in English. I don't care for Chick Corea's music, though I appreciate his obvious talent. I've written you, Pierre. And you know that I have. Let's take further discussions offline. Akan | ||

you too my major, you don't know to stop yourself even Dave ask. I was playing School Days now. I don't know the word donkey. Google translate = âne ... ok it's the same level as your private insults. For your instruction, listen this example: http://www.amazon.com/Spain-Michel-Camilo-Tomatito/dp/B00004TA43 and LET the peace come in your mind brother.

Dave, I will email you. Pierre ... Private insults . that you'd refer to them here speaks volumes about your character or lack thereof. Again, meet me offline should you care to debate further. BTW, I'm not your brother, nor will I ever be. Alan P.S, Want to buy a Swiss Rifle? Never fired and only dropped once. | ||

I have posted my thoughts about yesterday's exchange here in a post to the Alembic Basses & Guitars section. I highly encourage those of you who participated in yesterday's "discussion" to read that post before considering posting anything else to this thread. It is not appropriate to be negatively and insensitively critical in an FTC thread, and it is not appropriate to carry some past grievance into an FTC thread. I am hopeful that the respite afforded by the temporary closing of this thread has been helpful, that we've all had a chance to breath, and that we can return to the appreciation of the wonderful craftsmanship that we are so fortunate to be a part of. | ||

Sorry, no pics. When your bass is in spray, there's really nothing to report until it's out of spray. I know the holes got drilled for the controls. | ||

Frank, that was very gracious, and I am deeply touched and very honored. This is the total spirit I was hoping to find when joining the club. My heart goes out to The Alembic Family, and my amount of respect for them are too great to call anyone out. People know when they are wrong on stuff, and they know when things are not cool; and surely they have the power to make a difference to get through the day. Yeah, I am going to fall on my ass just like everyone on this earth, but with you guys help, I know I got a helping hand to get up. "The power of awesome musical minds, in witness of very awesome musical things." Over 2 years ago, it started right here in this area. Watching and learning what people wanted on their sandwiches. This is where it starts, this is where everything comes down to making sense. I am watching and gaining energy from other's dreams with each picture that opens up. I imagine the possibilities on what dreams may come, and their concerns from each exchange of requests. Regardless who owns the bass initially, it will eventually exchange to new owners. So, from the stand point of me owning something just as a physical thing... NO WAY. The Toma_Hawk is more than physical, it holds the Spirit of Alembic and the people whole lives had benefited from its creation, and those who would soon enjoy the sounds it may bare and release. The physical side of the wood, shape and sound will be passed on through generations through generations. However, what makes this bass special, is the story behind the object, good or bad -- from personal emails; this present FTC; past DFN; and music Blogs throughout the Internet The Story and the Spirit will lives on and on... Think about it. The Toma_Hawk is not just any bass, it's all of us, about us. I believe we should unify together and stand together on every bass that manages to get through the rigorous and prestigious halls of Alembic. Only with God's permission, I will be the first steward of the Toma_Hawk, but frankly, you are also Stewards of your fascinating basses and dream rigs too. I pray, that each generation, continues to another generation with our best intentions, and best examples, for the future was ours, now it's becoming closer and closer theirs. Everything we said, and everything we did with regards of this bass, "could" and will be read. I just hope we could leave something positive for them and future readers, in representing our beloved Alembic society. This is not about the Toma_Hawk, its showing our support for all Alembicans from all walks of life. So if people want to check out the Toma_Hawk as it moves through the thread, do so with peace and with the honors we must hold for all Alembics and the people who breaks their sleep to work on behalf of our dreams, and dreamers. Let's honor the Wickersham's for there support in allowing our voices to be heard through their portals world wide, and support this serious cause. Let's keep Love gainfully employed here.

Dave knows how I feel about this whole episode, and I'll leave it at that. Anyone wishing to know my thoughts on the matter can email me privately. I won't be discussing things here publicly. This being said, I and many others are looking forward to seeing Hal's bass coming to fruition. I'm sure it will be the instrument of a lifetime for him. V/R, Alan | ||
